11/12/2024, 11:40

The nature of dark matter poses one of the most pressing questions in fundamental physics today. While the thermal freeze-out of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) has theoretical appeal, its validity is increasingly questioned due to experimental null results from colliders as well as direct and indirect detection experiments. In this talk, we explore dark matter genesis mechanisms...

Brian Shuve (Harvey Mudd College)

13/12/2024, 11:05

Hidden sectors can give rise to novel dynamics in the early universe, and correlated signatures in experiments today. I will discuss some examples of thermal and non-thermal hidden sectors that can account for dark matter and/or the baryon asymmetry, and present new results and prospects for experimental searches that improve our sensitivity to these hidden sectors.

Manjari Bagchi

13/12/2024, 14:20

Neutron stars are rapidly spinning, highly magnetised, extremely dense compact stars. They are believed to be composed of mostly neutrons and some amount of other baryons. There are even theories that free quarks exist near the core of neutron stars. Hence, knowing the properties of neutron stars observationally help us understand properties of matter at extreme densities. Neutron stars are...
